Soccer teams suffer losses at hands of UChicago
Published: November 7, 2014Section: Sports
The Brandeis men’s and women’s soccer teams were on the road this past weekend with games against the University of Chicago.
Men’s soccer suffered its second loss of the season against the University of Chicago. The Judges lost 1-0, dropping to 16-2 for the season and 4-2 in the UAA conference. Men’s soccer outshot their opponent 13-5, but couldn’t capture the win. The only goal in the game came in the 76th minute by the Maroons. The University of Chicago passed Brandeis and is now first place in the conference with the win, and could clinch the title with just a win next weekend at NYU and a UC tie. However, if Brandeis wins this weekend it will tie the program record for wins in the regular season with 17 wins on the season.
The women’s soccer team was also defeated this weekend by the University of Chicago in a 2-0 loss. The Judges fell to 12-4-1, and 2-3-1 in the UAA conference. The Judges fought an evenly matched game, with 12 shots attempted by both teams.
Both the men’s and women’s soccer teams look to bounce back this Saturday, Nov. 8 against New York University.
